Hi! We’re Carlos and Diene, a Brazilian couple currently living in Lisbon, Portugal.

Diene:
Hi! I’m Diene, and I’m currently based in Lisbon doing part of my PhD in Biology. This is my first time in Europe, and I’m really excited to explore new cities and connect with people from different cultures. I love nature, art, cooking, and good conversations. For me, traveling is about learning from people and seeing the world from new perspectives.

Carlos:
Hey! I’m Carlos, from Brazil. I lived in Berlin for a year and had an amazing experience with Couchsurfing — both hosting guests and discovering places through locals. It completely changed the way I see travel.
Now, being in Europe again with Diene, I’m looking forward to sharing experiences, stories, and maybe a good home-cooked Brazilian meal with new friends along the way.

We’re calm, respectful, and open-minded people who enjoy sharing, laughing, and making genuine connections. We believe the best journeys are made not just of places, but of people and their stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I heard people speaking very well about couchsurfing, so I decided to try this.
Since then, my experience and the people I met during it have been amazing. Wish I had joined couchsurfing earlier.
